Happy Independence Day!

So long MWC!

If you haven't seen these videos:

I don't make light of the topic discussed, but it doesn't make these videos any less hilarious.

Improvement

This is an updated video from that last one I made of Jake reading a book and thinking all the animals made a bear sound. It's amazing how fast these tiny kids can learn.

Jake has been talking like crazy these days and it is so fun to hear him talk about things that he gets excited about. Yesterday he saw a picture of Woody from toy story at the grocery store and was so excited he couldn't stop telling me about it. Here are just a few words and signs that he says often.

What's Wrong With This Picture?

Jake would rather sit and try to figure out how to get that dress on Sleeping Beauty than play with his cars.
But Lily doesn't mind that he plays with her princess dolls because she would rather play with his cars.

And there is definitely nothing wrong with this picture I just thought it was cute. Don't you just love family night?

Lily's Kitchen

Lily has her own restaurant called Lily's Kitchen. Jake is a frequent customer
Here she is keeping an eye on Jake. She gets nervous when he comes too close to her hot stove.
Jake serving me my dinner.
And of course the dishes must be washed.

The Zoo

According to Jacob the only good thing about the Cleveland Zoo is that it is free on Mondays. He did like the dinosaur exhibit and that is pretty much the only thing we took pictures of. We were only there for about an hour because it was extremely hot(despite our efforts to get there bright and early to beat the heat. We couldn't get Jake to drink any water and Lily basically whined and cried about everything. As you can see in this picture Jake was also very tired and ready to fall over any second. Oh well, we tried. I also felt bad because the whole night before and the car ride there Lily kept talking about seeing the elephants and tigers and wouldn't you know the zoo was undergoing construction in the elephant and tiger exhibits so both were gone. She was pretty disappointed. I think the thing that did us in was the butterfly house. it was SO STINKING HOT in there so we tried to get out quick but some of the butterfly's got out of the first set of doors so we had to wait for somebody to catch them and put them back before we could go out. On a side note, I was very hesitant to post this picture because it is my first posted picture of my pregnancy. I am only 13 weeks however I look like I should be 20. Considering the fact that we only had about 3 pictures total I decided just to post it. I pretty much wear this skirt every day because I can't fit in to any of my shorts. I gained weight really fast in my hips with Lily too so I'm thinking maybe it's a girl.

Lily and Jacob hanging out.
They were pretty neat looking so we got a little video.

J and his book

Jake is starting to really take to books and I love it. His favorite is "Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See?" He reads this book to himself over and over again after I have already read it to him several times. He is obsessed with the bear if you can't tell and he thinks all animals should sound like one. I don't know if he just likes the bear too much or thinks he's being funny or if he really just has no clue what the other animals say. We're still working on it.
